Hell is half of this stuff even in the same universe?

 

[Pro Bot]

Re-Animator 1-3, From Beyond, King of the Ants and Suitable Flesh are the same universe. The Miskatonic Verse, as coined by Suitable Flesh's director.

Are their other Cthulhu Mythos derived shared universes?

 

[Pro Bot]

Not that I can think of at this very moment.

 

[iceman109]

What should I do with Cthulhu adaptations you think?

 

[ScottishRyzo]

Hell is half of this stuff even in the same universe?

Aren't the old ones generally portrayed as existing between realities?

 

[Zeitschiene]

What about Call of Cthulu Pen & Paper

 

[JudgeDreddpool]

The 2022 anime Housing Complex C is also tied to the Mythos due to Kimi being revealed as Yog-Sothoth in the finale.

@JudgeDreddpool what should I do with adaptations should I put them as the same thing?

Uhhhhh, I'm not sure? Maybe keep the original, and the adaptation could be an alternate universe? IDK

If what JudgeDreddpool said is counted as canon, then, again, Quake and Persona 2 final bosses are also Lovecraft gods

Uhhh, the Persona stuff shouldn't be counted. Like, just for ease, and also since Nyarlathotep is only really the big bad for the Persona 2 duology before Persona 3 wipes the slate clean with a new antagonist.

I know that he only appears in 1 and 2 (and the other 2) but why shouldn't be counted just for ease?

Because the entire Megami Tensei franchise is a complete fustercluck when it comes to the Timelines and Universes.

Yes, but shouldn't then just include Persona 1 and 2?

If you wanna, by all means. But here's what you'd be getting into...

I have seen similar graphics before. Let's be honest, most are just an attempt to find forced links between the series. I have seen worse graphs that try to count every route and re-release of the games as a different branch and logically it ends up looking like a mess. But one day I would like to see someone taking things with cold mind and crafting the timeline slowly while playing the games for real an not just trusting every wiki/random reddit post as a source for timeline reasoning.

 

[Jozaca]

For example, the Persona side looks very scary, but it is just because there is a bunch of crossover games when the P3, P4 and P5 characters are pulled from their time periods to a different dimension where the spin-off takes place, take part in the events of the game, and return to their time periods.
Also, why does the Catherine section take place in a different section of the multiverse? Just place it in the Persona timeline.
If there is no conexión to Tokio Mirage in the main games why put it in the timeline?. I any case the weird connection is to Fire Emblem.
